His Reluctant Salvation
(2026)(The first book in the Orlov Dynasty series)
A novel by Scarlett Shelton
I met him in a storm of blood and chaos.
A mafia king bleeding on my ER table—
cold eyes, ruthless aura,
a man carved from violence and vengeance.
I should’ve walked away.
Instead, I saved him.
And that single choice pulled me into a world
I was never meant to survive.
His enemies hunted him.
Then they hunted his daughter.
And before I realized what was happening…
they began hunting me too.
Mikhail Orlov claims he’s protecting me.
But protection in his world feels a lot like captivity—
guns, guards, shadows whispering my name.
He sits on a throne built from blood,
and I’m the outsider he refuses to let go.
I tell myself I''m too soft for this life—
too moral, too breakable, too good.
But the thing about monsters like him?
They fear only one thing—
losing the woman who sees the man beneath the brutality.
And the truth I hate admitting?
In a world full of predators…
I’ve never felt safer than I do with him.
Author’s Note: A dark, emotional, forbidden age-gap mafia romance. No Cliffhanger. HEA Guaranteed.
Genre: Romance
